Random scooter invention

Last week I designed a new scooter and I have no idea why.

The basic idea is to have two half size (350mm/14 inch diameter) front wheels (half the size of racing bike wheels), with a scooter platform and a small rear wheel as per the picture below.

The whole thing would fold-up (for the scooter platform and rear wheel) and drop down (for the handlebars) such that the whole mechanism can be contained between the two wheels except for the protruding handlebars, which would be used to carry the thing when not in use.

The standing platform could include a battery which could drive an electric motor in either the front or back wheels.

Is there any benefit over existing designs?

Well, the big front wheels help stability and smoothness on rough surfaces, and the double front wheels offers a nice fold-up capability not possible for large single front wheeled scooters.
